Sent by the referee at the end of the game after a disallowed goal it’s harry later, the coach of Tottenham, Anthony Contedenounced “an unfair decision” and left the post-match press conference after a question.
With the score at 1-1 and a victory would have qualified Spurs for the next round, Kane, after Emerson Royal’s header, tricked Antonio Adán (90 + 5). But after a long minute of consultation, VAR ruled out the centre-forward’s goal for offside.
In the ensuing confusion, the referee of the match, the Dutchman Danny Makkiele, showed the Italian coach a red card, where he will not be on the bench against Marseille in the last game, in six days, where defeat is prohibited for the people of London.
“Everyone entered the field, but I was sent off,” Conte began to respond when asked to recount the stormy end to the match and his dismissal. “There are times when you have to be smart. He only canceled a valid goal because the deflection was in front of Kane,” said the Italian.
With a long cross from the left by Ivan Perisic, it’s true that Royal’s header initially appeared to be going backwards – and there could have been no offside on a backward pass – but it was immediately deflected by a defender to reach Kane. , which was slightly offside at the time of the deflection.
“I think we are not very lucky with VAR. I want to see if they make this kind of decision and unfair decision, I repeat, against a good team in an important game,” Conte continued to curse, angry to be angry “Sometimes we can accept these kinds of decisions, but when we don’t see the honesty, we get really angry,” he continued.
However, he admitted that “in the first half (his team was) we didn’t put enough intensity and Sporting deserved to send. But in the second half I think we deserved the three points,” added he.
“Now we have to wait for the last game in Marseille to find out if we are classified. This is causing a lot of damage to the club and I hope that those responsible for the club talk to whoever it is,” he said. And he got up from the press room without taking any more questions.
